CAUTION continued:

-RISK OF FIRE. NEVER dispose of flammable chemicals or materials that have come into contact with flammable chemicals (for example, nail polish, acetone, gasoline) in the shredder basket.

-Always turn the shredder off and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before cleaning it, moving it, or emptying the waste basket.

-Never place the shredder near water or any heat source.

-Keep wastebasket emptied so that the shredder output is not impeded.

-Never use any petroleum based or flammable oils or lubricants in or around the machine as some oils can combust causing serious injury.

-Never shred envelopes, labels or anything with glue or any sticky substance as this will lead to paper jams.

-Do not use the shredder if the power cord is damaged in any way.

-Do not attempt to service this product yourself as doing so may expose you to sharp cutting blades and/or electricity and will void the manufacturers warranty.

-Never let the wastebasket become full. This will lead to shredded material being pulled back up into the shredder and cause jams.

-Never try to clean/clear the shredder blade.

TROUBLE SHOOTING FOR AURORA PAPER SHREDDERS:

The shredder does not work at all.

a) Make sure the shredder is plugged into an outlet which is in good working order.

b) Shredders with pull-out wastebaskets features a safety power cut off upon bin removal.

Make sure the pull-out wastebasket is properly set back into place.

c) In the event that the shredder is run continuously for too long and the motor overheats, a thermal

overload switch will automatically shut the power off. If this happens, move the switch to the off

position for 30 minutes or more before continuing.

Avoid touching the document feed opening with hands.

Product is not intended for use by children (product is not a toy).

Do not insert foreign objects into the document feed opening.

Do not spray or keep any aerosol products in or around shredder.

Avoid loose clothing or jewelry touching the document feed opening.

Avoid getting hair near the document feed opening.

The shredder only runs in "Rev" and "Fw" mode.

a)The shredder will not start running until paper, CD/DVD, or credit card is inserted into the appropriate feed slot. It is normal for the motor to run for a moment after the shredder is powered on but it should stop until paper is inserted. The trigger that activates the shredder is located directly in the center of the feed slot. If the paper you are inserting is narrow, it may not be hitting the switch. It is possible that the trigger, which activates the shredder, has become blocked with paper. Insert an index card, directly in the center of the feed slot, and apply force. This will usually clear any paper blocking the switch and force the switch closed.

MAINTENANCE:

We recommend you oil your shredder once a month with vegetable or cooking oil (nothing petroleum based). Drizzle some oil on a few pieces of paper and feed those pages through the shredder. Do not spray or keep any aersol products in or around shredder
